A friend and I are going to do a presentation to the Ohio University History Association Thursday evening on the birth of the student rights movement in the 1960s.
Ohio University was a little more progressive than SEMO (where wasn’t?), but my friend Carol Towarnicky had to take a bus from Toledo to Athens during summer break to appear before a hearing board that could have expelled her for breaking curfew too many times. Fortunately, the editor of The OU Post, where she was a reporter, backed up her story that she was covering news events.
Quick video overview
Here is a quick overview of some of the material we will cover.
Great video, well done…and we are were so full of it back then.
